I had a talk with him. Here 'talk' is a _____
Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
"I had a talk to him lately." is incorrect grammar. "I had a talk with him recently" is correct. In these phrases, the verb is had, and "a talk" is a noun (the object). Therefore the prepositional phrase needs to be a state "with him", not "to him" which is an action. You could say "I talked to him recently", where the verb "talk" is an action verb. In these examples, "lately" sounds unnatural to me and I would use "recently" instead.
